"Kusina is a family-run Filipino restaurant in Mounds View, Minnesota. It serves a menu of slow-cooked humba, menudo, and tender barbecue pork. Chef Jailin Tabares and her husband Scott Zimmer opened Kusina last year. The restaurant is known for its authentic Filipino dishes based on family recipes, including lechon kawali, lumpia, pinakbet, and dinuguan. The restaurant's interiors, designed by Zimmer, feature a long wooden counter, bamboo accents, and live plants. Kusina has become popular, attracting regulars from as far as Winnipeg, Canada, and Rochester, Minnesota." - Justine Jones
